"You guys wash up first, and I'll return the car to the team."
Gu Xingdong said and looked at Chen Lishu: "I have already packed up Xingping's house. You can see if there is anything missing tomorrow and go buy it tomorrow."
"Yeah." Chen Lishu nodded.
After Gu Xingdong left, Chen Lishu saw that Gu Xingping yawned several times in a short while, so she asked her to wash up first, and then went back to the room to put down her bag and then went to the study room to take a look.
Gu Xingdong was well prepared. The originally empty room had a table and a chair, and a single bed was placed near the window. On the bed was a set of neatly stacked military green quilts.
Chen Lishu walked over and pressed the bed board and felt it was a bit thin. She turned back to her room and took out another quilt from the cabinet and spread it under it.
"Third sister-in-law, you go ahead after I finish washing." Gu Xingping came into the room and called her. Seeing that she was busy, he came over to help her.
"We still need a curtain. I'll go to the city to buy one tomorrow. Just make do with it today and don't take off your clothes before going to bed. This place is different from home. There are people living across the street."
In rural areas, lights are turned off as soon as it gets dark, and no curtains are installed in every house. Small courtyards in towns are also blocked by high walls, and once the door is closed, it is impossible to see what is going on inside.
Gu Xingping smiled and nodded: "I understand, Third Sister-in-law."
"Go to bed early." Chen Lishu warned, turned around and went out, not forgetting to close the door for her when she went out.
After Gu Xingping was settled, Chen Lishu also went to the bathroom to wash up.
When Gu Xingdong came back, the lights in the living room were on, but the room was quiet. He guessed that the two of them might have fallen asleep, so he went to the bathroom as quietly as possible to wash up briefly. When he came out, he glanced at the man who was curled up in a ball on the stool and was already making a grunting sound.
Your Majesty, go over and turn off the light and enter the bedroom in the dark.
Feeling the position next to her sink, Chen Lishu turned over and leaned next to him.
"Did I wake you up?" Gu Xingdong stretched out his arms and hugged the person.
"No."
Chen Lishu nestled in his arms, adjusted herself to a comfortable position and said, "Xingdong, let me tell you something."
"Yeah." Gu Xingdong nodded.
"In addition to the things that were mailed back this time, I also bought another thing."
Gu Xingdong didn't speak, waiting for her to continue.
Chen Lishu raised her eyes, looked at his angular jaw in the moonlight and said, "I bought a house in Beijing for a total of five thousand yuan."
"Are you going to Beijing?" Gu Xingdong grasped the key point and asked with a frown.
Chen Lishu knew what he was worried about, so she pursed her lips and smiled: "You are still here, how could I go so far away."
Her words pleased Gu Xingdong, who lowered his head and pecked her on the forehead. A smile burst out of his throat, and he said in a low voice: "I just said that I shouldn't be so charming."
Chen Lishu couldn't help but muttered: "You are so beautiful."
"You're not sleepy, are you?" Gu Xingdong's voice suddenly became dangerous.
Chen Lishu was so frightened that she immediately closed her eyes: "I have already fallen asleep."
Looking at her closed eyes, Gu Xingdong smiled helplessly, feeling sorry for her hard work in the car, and he hugged the person and closed his eyes.
The next day, Chen Lishu opened her eyes with the wake-up call.
Gu Xingdong was getting dressed. When he turned around and saw her awake, he said, "It's still early, please sleep a little longer."
"Yeah." Chen Lishu nodded, turned over and was about to go back to sleep. Suddenly she remembered something she forgot to tell him last night, and hurriedly said: "I think it is thanks to the help of Lao Wu and the others that we have so many tickets this time. Please invite me at home tonight."
Let them have a meal as a thank you."
"Okay, I'll tell them when the time comes." Gu Xingdong nodded and said, quickly fastening the last button of his shirt and turning around to go out.
Chen Lishu closed her eyes when she heard the door closing, and soon fell asleep again.
When I opened my eyes again, it was already bright. I had just left the house and saw Gu Xingping sitting on a stool in the living room. Opposite me was the king with his hands clasped in his hands and his eyes half-closed, looking indifferent. He and the cat had been staring like this for who knows how long.
.
Seeing Chen Lishu come out, Gu Xingping took the lead and stood up and said to her: "Sister-in-law, I don't know how to use a gas tank, but the rice has been washed and soaked in the basin."
"Okay, I'm going to cook." Chen Lishu nodded and entered the kitchen.
First, she put the rice in the pot to make porridge. Thinking of what she saw when she came back yesterday, Chen Lishu turned her head and looked out the window at the open space. Sure enough, she saw a lot of vegetables planted in the open space, such as eggplants, peppers, and tomatoes. Although the number was not large, the variety was quite good.
It was quite complete, so I immediately took the basin and went out to pick vegetables.
As a result, as soon as she opened the door, a half-sized figure suddenly ran towards her. Chen Lishu dodged it with lingering fear, and a smaller figure ran out right behind her. She was so frightened that she quickly took a step back.
"You two little bastards, don't let me catch you, or I will skin you!"
Following the yelling and cursing, a tall and strong woman came out of the opposite door, holding a broomstick in her hand, with a very angry look on her face.
The woman was stunned for a moment when she saw Chen Lishu, and then she tidied her clothes a little embarrassedly: "You are Battalion Commander Gu's lover, right? My man is Wang Jianshe, deputy commander of the Second Battalion, and my name is Zhao Guiying."
Chen Lishu smiled at her and nodded: "Hello, sister-in-law."
"Hey." Zhao Guiying responded, then leaned close to Chen Lishu and asked in a low voice: "Sister, you are planning to have a child when you come here this time, right? If I don't get mad at my two boys this day, I will be lucky. Let me tell you this
I came here during my child's summer vacation with the intention of having a daughter. You said well-behaved little girls are so adorable."
Because he had not seen Chen Lishu coming for a while, Zhao Guiying automatically classified Chen Lishu as someone with the same purpose as himself.
Chen Lishu didn't explain much and exchanged a few words with her before leaving to pick vegetables.
For breakfast, Chen Lishu simply cooked some porridge and stir-fried some green vegetables. After cooking, she served the king some porridge and put it in his special bowl. The king watched cautiously at first, but when he felt that Chen Lishu meant no harm, he twisted around and came over.
After Chen Lishu and Gu Xingping had breakfast, they simply packed up and locked the door before leaving the camp gate and taking the bus to the city.
Because they wanted to buy curtains, they went to the department store first, looked around and finally chose a piece of fabric with blue background and white flowers.
When checking out, Chen Lishu's eyes were suddenly attracted by a gray cotton fabric.
"Comrade, can you show me that fabric?"
The salesperson saw the direction of her finger and turned around to take off the fabric.
"This fabric is a new type, one piece is 2 feet long, which corresponds to a square foot of cloth ticket."
Chen Lishu took it in her hand and touched it carefully. Although the color was not very good-looking, the fabric was indeed good. It was soft and elastic, so it was perfect for making underwear.
